 RB> A very good report on the Viscount.
        Thank You, Richard.
 RB> The Viscount would not meet FAA CERTIFICATION requirments in the
 RB> United States so the U.S. State Dept. issued or asked the FAA to issue
 RB> 27 waivers of the Regulations so it could be Certificated in the U.S.
        I wasn't aware of that.  I assumed it would have the normal course
of minor changes that might be needed.  OTH when you consider the complexity
of the aircraft for the era, maybe 27 isn't so bad.  Do you any examples
of what the FAA balked at?
 RB> I'm rated in both the 700 and 800 Series Viscount.
        Congratultions!  Don't get much stick time though, do you?
                Christopher
